Stones from other hills may serve to polish the jade of this one
In the process of industrialization and modernization, various countries have formed their own design culture with distinct characteristics, complete system and stable inheritance. To become a “textile power”, China’s textile industry is required to use the pioneer industry cluster as an important experimental window, focusing on cultivating the innovative design culture with strong recognition and independent soul, with traditional characteristics of Chinese culture, the industrial characteristics of industry culture, and the resource characteristics of regional culture. Meanwhile, under the new pattern of advocating globalization and opening up, we need to learn from each other and be inclusive, and lead new development with fashion.
